Abstract
There is disclosed a method and system for identifying the effects of an item failing in a network. Information about a first item in a network is received. The information indicates that the first item provides a service to other items in the network. A graph of the network is retrieved. A node in the graph that corresponds to the first item is identified. Edges are added to the graph to connect the node of the first item to nodes of the other items that receive the service from the first item. A request is received to model a failure of the first item. The nodes connected to the node that corresponds to the first item are retrieved. Operational rules are applied to each of the retrieved nodes to identify if any of their corresponding items would fail. A list of items that would fail is output.
